Dear Cor,

Grenholm, Cristina .  Romans Interpreted: A Comparative Analysis of  
the Commentaries of Barth, Nygren, Cranfield, Wilckens on Paul's  
Epistle to the Romans (Studia Doctrina).  Coronet books, 1990.

Reasoner, Mark.  Romans in Full Circle: A History of Interpretation,  
Westminster-John Knox, 2006.  (deals with Barth throughout)

Burnett, Richard E.  Karl Barth's Theological Exegesis: The  
Hermeneutical Principles of the Römerbrief Period.  Eerdmans, 2004.
